How did a tried and true Napa Cabernet drinker become the owner of a bottled sangria company? It’s a story we’ll explore on this week’s podcast with Jennifer Clearwater, owner of Lovino Sangria.
From her fortuitous meeting with original Lovino Sangria owners Jamie and Erica Zdroik, to her journey in recreating the flavors of the latent sangria brand with the help of Craig Fletcher of Mona Rose Winery in Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin, we’ll explore the ins and outs of Clearwater’s unexpected passion project. Along the way, we’ll discuss the challenges she faced in bringing back the brand, her experience in discovering the joys of sangria and her plans for growing the business from the ground up.
